Title: Can't access the settings menu on DIY kit after update
Post by: OyVey on February 25, 2024, 11:12:54 PM
Hi!
I just updated the firmware on the DIY kit via the update page and after I did so I can't seem to access the settings menu by pressing the top right button while sliding the power switch on.

Did the way to access it change?

Halp.

thanks

Yes it changed. You can connect your TV to this webpage https://tinytv.us/Settings/ or change the settings in the `settings.txt` file on the SD card.

Thanks! Where can I read more about how to modify settings.txt?
Also - is there a way to get video file names back instead of channel numbers?

To modify the settings.txt you would just take the SD card out, put it into your computer, and open the file in something like notepad. Descriptions of each setting can be found on the settings page by hovering over the question marks.

There isn't a way to show filenames instead of channel numbers currently.
